Tonight we were back to a regular Hounslow community task, helping out at Chiswick House and Gardens.

Eleven of us made our way to the usual meeting point, gathering just inside the entrance gates on Dukes Avenue where we met up with one of the gardening team.

A big warm welcome to India joining us for her first Goodgym session, it was great to have you along and we hope you can make it to another task soon.

Jon, Madhan and Kash were first to arrive and gave India the rundown on Goodgym in the West London area.

The rest of the group began to arrive and we headed over to the area we had previously started to clear a few months ago. Tonight we were using a combination of brute force, and keeping our eyes peeled for unwanted bramble roots, preparing the soil for planting. We also stumbled across some retro looking 1970s throwback underpants buried in the ground 😆

We filled a bag within 45 minutes and called it a day satisfied with our efforts.

Next week we are back helping out on the Gunnersbury Park Estate and our usual weekly group run to the task, starting from Chiswick Town Hall meeting at 18:30.
